IBM Locating ITM Workspace Application Support Files for z/OS Agents - United States AppSupport OMEGAMON application support 350 360 410 420 610 601 700 TECHNOTE (TROUBLESHOOTING)

PROBLEM(ABSTRACT)
 This technote addresses the commonly asked question of where can workspace application support files be found for z/OS Agents.

RESOLVING THE PROBLEM
Before you can view data collected by monitoring agents, you must install application support for the agents on the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server and on the hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server. When you install application support on the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server, you are installing the files required for presenting workspaces and online help for each monitoring agent. When you install application support on the hub monitoring server, you are installing the files required for product-provided situations, situation distributions, and other product-specific data. Installing application support on the hub monitoring server is also known as "seeding" the hub.
Most z/OS-based agents provide application support files on CDs or DVDs, which are separate from the mainframe installation media. Distributed agents include their application support files in the distributed installation process. Each CD /DVD that contains application support files is listed below, with information about which products use the CD /DVD and where the CD / DVD can be found. The latest level in fulfillment is the CD /DVD on this list. Where possible, IBM provides both .zip and .tar formats, as well as .iso format, so that a physical CD / DVD can be created.

Please note that the IBM Tivoli Monitoring (ITM) media is separate from the workspace application support files which are included with products that run in the ITM environment. ITM can be obtained by ordering either 5724-C04 IBM Tivoli Monitoring through Passport Advantage or the no charge 5698-A79 IBM Tivoli Management Services on z/OS through Shop zSeries. Your IBM rep can ask Techline to configure and submit the order as well. 5698-A79 includes the server, engine, and configurator on z/OS. Workspace application support files may have their own fixpacks which are separate and distinct from any ITM fixpacks. Fixpacks can be found on the product support urls at:
http://www-306.ibm.com/software/support/index_A_Z.html [http://www-306.ibm.com/software/support/index_A_Z.html].

The ITM Configuration Guide describes the application support installation process. It can be found online in the ITM information center at: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSTFXA_6.3.0/com.ibm.itm.doc_6.3/install/agent_support.htm [https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSTFXA_6.3.0/com.ibm.itm.doc_6.3/install/agent_support.htm]. A useful reference for this activity is a technote that lists all of the ITM product code. It can be found at:

IBM What are the analyzer.db.updateMode parameter values for Case Foundation Case Analyzer? - United States performance TECHNOTE (FAQ)

QUESTION
 What are the analyzer.db.updateMode parameter values for Case Foundation Case Analyzer?

ANSWER
The analyzer.db.updateMode parameter controls the JDBC update method used by Case Analyzer when updating tables in the Case Analyzer store SQL database.

The default value is CUSTOM_BATCH. That means that the JDBC driver will use the CUSTOM_BATCH update method for Case Analyzer queries.

Another possible value is BATCH. That means that the JDBC driver will use the BATCH update method for Case Analyzer queries.

You can set the BATCH value for the analyzer.db.updateMode parameter with the following query in the Case Analyzer store database:

 * UPDATE X_CAProperties SET PropValue='BATCH'
   WHERE PropName ='analyzer.db.updateMode'

When to set the analyzer.db.updateMode = BATCH setting
 * IBM support may ask customer to set this setting to circumvent various performance-related symptoms and unexpected behavior.
 * In general, our experience is that the Microsoft JDBC drivers work better and are more stable with the analyzer.db.updateMode = BATCH setting.

Question:
Case Analyzer is not working

CaseAnalyzer is not working, no latest audit log although service is running

Error in log:

"CAPublisher c2dce3b9 [Error] Unexpected exception occurred while processing task CAPublisher for store CASTORE.; Exception: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: The query processor ran out of internal resources and could not produce a query plan. This is a rare event and only expected for extremely complex queries or queries that reference a very large number of tables or partitions. Please simplify the query. If you believe you have received this message in error, contact Customer Support Services for more information."

Answer:
You can set the BATCH value for the analyzer.db.updateMode parameter with the following query in the Case Analyzer store database:

 * UPDATE X_CAProperties SET PropValue='BATCH'
   WHERE PropName ='analyzer.db.updateMode'

IBM The off-line backup command could fail even when the database is quiesced on DB2  V10.1 and later. - United States  TECHNOTE (TROUBLESHOOTING)

PROBLEM(ABSTRACT)
 Offline-backup against the quiesced database failed with the error, SQL1035N.
It did not occur with V9.7. And it came to happen after migrating to V10.1 or later from V9.7.

SYMPTOM

The following example shows this situation.

1) In CLP 1 under the user having DBADM authority, execute quiesce database command on the database, sample.

$ db2 connect to sample

Database Connection Information

Database server = DB2/AIX64 10.5.7
SQL authorization ID = E105Q7A
Local database alias = SAMPLE

$ db2 quiesce database immediate force connections
DB20000I The QUIESCE DATABASE command completed successfully.
$ db2 terminate
DB20000I The TERMINATE command completed successfully.

2) In CL 2 under the user having only connect privilege on sample database.
Run the following shell repeating connect to sample..

$ cat connect.sh
#!/bin/sh
count=0
while [ $count -lt 1000 ]; do
db2 connect to $db
count=`expr $count + 1`
done

db2insth $ sh -x loop.sh
+ count=0
+ [ 0 -lt 1000 ]
+ db2 connect to sample
SQL20157N User with authorization ID "USER1" failed to attach to a
quiesced instance, or connect to a quiesced database or a database in a
quiesced instance which is in the following quiesce mode: "QUIESCE DATABASE"
SQLSTATE=08004
+ + expr 0 + 1
count=1
+ [ 1 -lt 1000 ]
+ db2 connect to sample
<snippet>

* connect to sample continues to fail with the error, SQL20157N because the database, sample is quiesced.

3) In CLP 1, execute the off-line backup command while executing the shell script under CLP2.

$ db2 backup db sample
SQL1035N The operation failed because the specified database cannot be
connected to in the mode requested. SQLSTATE=57019

* The backup command failed. But this error does not happen on V9.7.

For avoiding the error in offline-backup, use quiesce instance command with restricted access option.

CAUSE
Because of the code change in V10.1 GA, the off-line backup command could be blocked for short period of time while connect database command is executed.

RESOLVING THE PROBLEM

Please use quiesce instance command with the "restricted access" option instead of the quiesce database command.

Or please retry off-line backup command after getting SQL1035N error.

RELATED INFORMATION
 A Japanese translation is available [http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21980030]

Question: SQL20157N happened in off-line backup against the quiesced database after migrating to V10.1 or V10.5 from V9.7. The customer spoladically got SQL20157N error in off-line backup command even when the database was quiesced. Why does this situation happen on V10.1 and V10.5 not on V9.7?

Answer: Because of the code change in V10.1 GA, the off-line backup command could be blocked for short period of time while connect database command is executed.

IBM MQ 7.1 and later: How to remove a channel authentication record (CHLAUTH) - United States  TECHNOTE (FAQ)

QUESTION
 You have added a channel authentication record into a WebSphere MQ 7.1 or later queue manager:

SET CHLAUTH(*) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER(testuser) USERSRC(CHANNEL) ACTION(ADD)
AMQ8877: WebSphere MQ channel authentication record set.

Then you display it:

DISPLAY CHLAUTH(*) TYPE(USERMAP)
1 : DISPLAY CHLAUTH(*) TYPE(USERMAP)
AMQ8878: Display channel authentication record details.
CHLAUTH(*) TYPE(USERMAP)
CLNTUSER(testuser) USERSRC(CHANNEL)

Now you want to remove it and you try executing the following runmqsc command which you constructed using copy and paste from the above output:

DELETE CHLAUTH(*) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER(testuser) USERSRC(CHANNEL)
3 : DELETE CHLAUTH(*) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER(testuser) USERSRC(CHANNEL)

You get the following error:

AMQ8405: Syntax error detected at or near end of command segment below:-
DELETE CHLAUTH

The DELETE CHLAUTH does not exist and after consulting the MQ 7.1 Information Center you read that you have to use the SET CHLAUTH command with the argument ACTION(REMOVE). You try now:

SET CHLAUTH(*) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER(testuser) ACTION(REMOVE)
19 : SET CHLAUTH(*) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER(testuser) ACTION(REMOVE)

But you get the following error:

AMQ8884: Channel authentication record not found.

You specified the attribute CLNTUSER(testuser) as it was shown in the output of the DISPLAY CHLAUTH(*), thus, you think the record should be found. You want to know what is the problem?

CAUSE
See the following section of the MQ 7.1 documentation:
WebSphere MQ > Administering > Administering local WebSphere MQ objects > Performing local administration tasks using MQSC commands
WebSphere MQ object names [http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSFKSJ_7.1.0/com.ibm.mq.doc/fa11060_.htm]
+ Case-sensitivity in MQSC commands
MQSC commands, including their attributes, can be written in upper-case or lower-case. Object names in MQSC commands are folded to upper-case (that is, QUEUE and queue are not differentiated), unless the names are enclosed within single quotation marks. If quotation marks are not used, the object is processed with a name in upper-case.

When specifying the SET command with the following value CLNTUSER(testuser) the string 'testuser' will be folded to upper-case resulting in the following value being actually used by runmqsc:
CLNTUSER(TESTUSER)
And in this case, there is no record for the user TESTUSER (the record is for 'testuser').

ANSWER
NOTICE that the userid mentioned in the CLNTUSER field of the output of the DISPLAY CHLAUTH command is NOT surrounded by single quotes.

However, you MUST include the single quotes when specifying the value during an ACTION(REMOVE):

SET CHLAUTH(*) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER('testuser') ACTION(REMOVE)
1 : set CHLAUTH(*) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER('testuser') ACTION(REMOVE)
AMQ8877: WebSphere MQ channel authentication record set.

++ Example of record with more attributes

Let's examine the case when a record has more attributes, such as:

SET CHLAUTH(MY.CHANNEL) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER('client_1') USERSRC(MAP) MCAUSER('user_1') ADDRESS('*') ACTION(ADD)
AMQ8877: WebSphere MQ channel authentication record set.

display CHLAUTH(MY.CHANNEL)
9 : display CHLAUTH(MY.CHANNEL)
AMQ8878: Display channel authentication record details.
CHLAUTH(MY.CHANNEL) TYPE(USERMAP)
DESCR( ) CUSTOM( )
ADDRESS(*) CLNTUSER(client_1)
MCAUSER(user_1) USERSRC(MAP)

You want to delete the record and you try the following command which is based on the command that worked well for a simpler case. But this time, it fails:

SET CHLAUTH(MY.CHANNEL) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER('client_1') ACTION(REMOVE)
AMQ8884: Channel authentication record not found.

You try the original command that created the record, but changing the action to REMOVE:
SET CHLAUTH(MY.CHANNEL) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER('client_1') USERSRC(MAP) MCAUSER('user_1') ADDRESS('*') ACTION(REMOVE)
AMQ8885: Parameter not allowed for this action on a channel authentication record.

The attribute USERSRC is not a valid parameter for the REMOVE action (see table below).
Therefore, by removing this attribute, then the following command worked successfully to remove the record:
SET CHLAUTH(MY.CHANNEL) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER('mengano') ADDRESS('*') ACTION(REMOVE)
AMQ8877: WebSphere MQ channel authentication record set.

I am attempting to remove the first of the two records above with this command, but receive the response "record not found":

     SET CHLAUTH(BMMADMIN.SVRCONN) TYPE(USERMAP) CLNTUSER('CHADVT3UTBMMPA$') ACTION(REMOVE)

     AMQ8884: Channel authentication record not found.

How do I fix this problem??

Answer: you MUST include the single quotes when specifying the value during an ACTION(REMOVE):


IBM SQL1763N error with Reason Code 11 while running "Alter Tablespace" command to reclaim unused storage space against DMS or automatic storage tablespaces. - United States SQL1763N; Alter Tablespace; reclaimable storage; DMS; Automatic storage table spaces; MON_GET_TABLESPACE; RECLAIMABLE_SPACE_ENABLED; SMS; DB2 Version 9.7; lower high water mark TECHNOTE (TROUBLESHOOTING)

PROBLEM(ABSTRACT)
 Receiving SQL1763N error with Reason Code 11 while running "Alter Tablespace" command to reclaim unused storage space against DMS or automatic storage tablespaces.

SYMPTOM
Following reasons apply:

 * If the DMS or automatic storage tablespaces are not created in DB2 Version 9.7 or later, as the "Reclaimable Storage" is not available in tablespaces created in earlier versions(V9.1/V9.5) of the DB2 product.
 * Trying to alter a SMS tablespace as this feature is not supported on SMS tablespaces.

Example testcase on a TEMPSPACE1 SMS tablespace.

 *
 *
 * DB21034E The command was processed as an SQL statement because it was not a valid Command Line Processor command. During SQL processing it returned: SQL1763N Invalid ALTER TABLESPACE statement for table space "TEMPSPACE1" due to reason "11" SQLSTATE=429BC
 *

DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM
MON_GET_TABLESPACE table function and RECLAIMABLE_SPACE_ENABLED monitor element can be used to identify whether the tablespace is enabled for reclaimable storage or not. Example:
db2 "SELECT varchar(tbsp_name, 30) as tbsp_name, tbsp_type, RECLAIMABLE_SPACE_ENABLED FROM TABLE(MON_GET_TABLESPACE('',-2))"

Snippet of the output:

TBSP_NAME TBSP_TYPE RECLAIMABLE_SPACE_ENABLED
----------------- ----------- -------------------------
SYSCATSPACE DMS 1
TEMPSPACE1 SMS 0
USERSPACE1 DMS 1

If the RECLAIMABLE_SPACE_ENABLED monitor element returns a value of 1, then the tablespace is enabled for reclaimable storage. Otherwise, it returns a value of 0.

RESOLVING THE PROBLEM
To use the reclaimable storage feature, make sure to create the DMS or automatic storage tablespaces in DB2 Version 9.7 or later. Example testcase on SYSCATSPACE DMS tablespace which has reclaimable storage enabled.

 *
 *
 *
 *
 *

Note:
Tablespaces migrated from DB2 V9.1/V9.5 to V9.7 won't get upgraded directly to use the reclaimable storage feature. RELATED INFORMATION
 Reclaimable storage [http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9r7/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.db2.luw.admin.dbobj.doc/doc/c0055392.html]

Question:
DB2 Non Reclaimable Storage . We have tablespaces defined under DB2 9.5 that apparently are not able
to reclaim storage back to the OS, but does that mean DB2 cannot reuse
this space as well?

Answer: To use the reclaimable storage feature, make sure to create the DMS or automatic storage tablespaces in DB2 Version 9.7 or later.

QUESTION
 The Filter Analyzer reports the error:

"rule includes an unsupported expression"

when comparing two ObjectServer fields against each other and/or a field against GetDate within an EventReader Filter

CAUSE
This is a limitation in the functionality of the Filter Analyzer in Impact and can produce the log file message:
WARN [EventFilter] Could not consolidate filters. Please check if the filter expressions are valid. java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException

ANSWER
In the EventReader properties file:

$NCHOME/impact/etc/[ImpactServerName]_[EventReaderName].props

where [ImpactServerName] is the name of the ImpactServer (NCI by default) and [EventReaderName] is the lower-case name of the EventReader (for example: omnibuseventreader). Add the property:

impact.[EventReaderName].consolidatefilters=false

where, again, [EventReaderName] is the lower-case name of the EventReader (for example: omnibuseventreader).

Once this property has been added to the file an ImpactServer restart is required to enable it.

In a Clustered environment one would have to stop the Secondary ImpactServer(s) first, then stop and restart the Primary ImpactServer and then restart the Secondary ImpactServer(s) to ensure that the property is not overwritten and is distributed to each ImpactServer in the Cluster.

Please note that this issue relates to the use of the Filter Analyzer and does not impinge upon the EventReader ability to parse the Filter.

If you are unable to see the Filter being applied in the outgoing SQL for the EventReader please read the TechNote "EventReader Filters not applied to SQL select statement" [link below].

RELATED INFORMATION

Question:
Netcool/Impact (all versions): OMNIbusEventReader Filter Analyzer error "rule includes an unsupported expression" Netcool/Impact (all versions): OMNIbusEventReader Filter Analyzer error "rule includes an unsupported expression"

This occurs when comparing two ObjectServer fields against each other in a Filter.

Answer:
In the EventReader properties file:

$NCHOME/impact/etc/[ImpactServerName]_[EventReaderName].props

where [ImpactServerName] is the name of the ImpactServer (NCI by default) and [EventReaderName] is the lower-case name of the EventReader (for example: omnibuseventreader). Add the property:

impact.[EventReaderName].consolidatefilters=false

where, again, [EventReaderName] is the lower-case name of the EventReader (for example: omnibuseventreader).

Once this property has been added to the file an ImpactServer restart is required to enable it.

In a Clustered environment one would have to stop the Secondary ImpactServer(s) first, then stop and restart the Primary ImpactServer and then restart the Secondary ImpactServer(s) to ensure that the property is not overwritten and is distributed to each ImpactServer in the Cluster.
